Christ-Centered Math Is Uniquely Scriptural!

Christ-Centered Math derives its teaching content from
mathematical truths rooted in Scripture. For example, the first thing God did in Creation week was to add something to the nothing that existed---the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1). Addition is thus the basis for all other mathematical operations.

Level A lessons begin by introducing addition concepts 1-10. Math Workbook A students will also learn number concepts 1-10 ("how many," number identification, and number recall) as they count pictures of some things God made during Creation week, for our Creator also counted when He numbered the days of the week.

Level B:1 teaches the 1-10 addition/subtraction
facts plus how the godly qualities represented by ten animal families can be further developed personally.

Level B:2 teaches biblical stewardship through the study of fractions (1/2, 1/3, 1/4), time, and money. The scriptural content encourages giving our whole heart to Christ, not just part of it.

Christ-Centered Math Builds Godly Character!

Math Lessons A, B, and C include CHARACTER TRAINING TIPS
to encourage children to ask Jesus to help them develop godly qualities like those reflected by the following animal families in the
Christ-Centered Math Flashcards 1-10 Set:

ONE Penguin–Generosity

TWO Deer–Flexibility

THREE Bear–Loyalty

FOUR Beaver–Orderliness

FIVE Skunk–Courage

SIX Badger–Decisiveness

SEVEN Chickadee–Joyfulness

EIGHT Crow–Responsibility

NINE Squirrel–Endurance

TEN Moth–Determination

Note: This Set is included in the Math Master Guide's 3-ring binder (Part 500). The story illustrations and character quality definitions of the animal families were adapted from
Character Sketches Vol. I and II (used by permission from the Institute in Basic
Life Principles).

Teaching Math Levels A and B:

At Levels A and B:1, after teaching the day's lesson refer to the included Workbook Answer Key
for teaching tips to complete the workbook assignment.
How to teach fractions, time, and money is in a Workbook Instructions/Answer Key format in Math Lessons: Level B:2.

Pacing Suggestions:

An Advanced K4, K5, or Beginning 1st grader can usually complete Math Levels A
and B:1 in a year---and some K5/B1st students can also finish Level B:2.
A few more advanced students have been known to finish Levels A, B,
and Level C in a typical school year (or shortly thereafter). For the best
results, teach in sequence according to whatever pacing lovingly challenges your student's
God-given capabilities.
